About this map

Santa Renia Fields serves as a primary marker in this high-desert region of Elko County, where the landscape is defined by the eastern slopes of the Santa Renia Mountains. This early 21st-century survey documents a network of primitive roads and drainage systems that support local ranching and land management. The terrain is characterized by significant natural landmarks such as Round Mountain and The Grade, which overlook a complex system of seasonal waterways including Antelope Creek, Little Coyote Creek, and Boulder Creek.

Smaller features like the Tie Corral indicate historical and ongoing land use in this sparsely populated area. The convergence of numerous watercourses such as Alkali Creek, Squaw Creek, and Bell Creek illustrates the intricate hydrography of the Great Basin. This map provides researchers and land historians with a precise record of the physical geography and established access points across this portion of the Nevada interior.
